Bottle. Red-brown, small head which quickly disappears. Thin body. Sweet malty smell. Taste is a little bit sweet, hints of caramel, a little bit roasted, a little bit nutty. OK Norwegian grocery store bayer.

UPDATED: JAN 15, 2011 0.5 litre box. Pours nice in the glass, rich aroma, and taste sits well in the mouth.

Amber with off white head - nice malty aroma - solid malt body with hints of hop bitterness and long aftertaste - nice beer

Aass Bayer represents the genre of "bayer", which is the traditional Norwegian term for the darker-shaded lager beers originally from Bavaria, Germany. It is a typical of the sort: dark malts, caramel look as well as flavor. It is a smooth and drinkable beer but that’s about it. Not much character, so the rating will be accordingly mediocre.
